Abstract excerpt
The inheritance of maxicircle DNA was determined using a polymorphic EcoRI restriction site in the maxicircle variable region. In 11 hybrid progeny from a genetic cross of two stocks of Trypanosoma brucei, 7 progeny apparently inherited maxicircles uniparentally from either parent, in agreement w...
